Thanksgiving #3

In case you haven’t noticed…the past 3 days have been a sorry excuse for us to use our new lens like mad and show you lots of pictures of food.

So, here’s some more. The Last Thanksgiving.

There was a potato casserole too, but it had the same topping. I guess I should have waited until somebody cut into and THEN taken the pictures.

This is the 2nd year in a row we’ve made that pie and it is a winner.

Here’s the recipe

It recommends fresh pumpkin. And I’d stick with it. If you’ve never used fresh or have any clue how to get your hands on some, it’s super easy.

• Smaller pumpkins have better flavor.
• Bake it like you would a squash. Slice it down the middle, put hollow side down on a baking sheet on 375 for about and hour to hour and a half until fork tender.
• Scrape that goodness off of there into a food processor, add a dash of salt and call it a day.
• Fresh pumpkin freezes beautifully by the way. Use it for pies, soups, dips, etc.

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and you ended up with lots o leftovers. Now take your rest and gear up for Christmas!

Off to decorate a tree….
